THE LAST WORD
· As you may have guessed from her Precious non-campaign-campaign or her uncomfortably flirtatious sit-down with Craig Ferguson, Mo’Nique does not bore anyone with industry conversation. The BET late night host asks questions that her audience cares about like “Would you date a brother if he was the manager of Burger King?” (But wait, he’s also a great conversationalist and has health benefits!) Even grittier revelations occurred last week during an interview with Vivica A. Fox, in which the actress smudged her mascara when discussing her break-up and eventual forgiveness of 50 Cent a.k.a. Curtis Jackson.
· Emile Hirsch and Jessica Biel will scale Mount Kilimanjaro together in an “epic” effort to promote awareness for clean water worldwide.
· The next James Bond movie will never see the light of day unless someone buys MGM already.
· CBS Evening News has retired Walter Cronkite’s soothing voice-over introduction in favor of Morgan Freeman’s soothing voice-over introduction.
· One director’s loss is another one’s gain; Taken helmer Pierre Morel has — er — taken over Paramount’s sci-fi classic Dune from Peter Berg.

I want Liam Neeson to scream "MuWaDEEB" and have Sandworms tremble in fear of his badass-ery.
And he needs to keep the codpiece that Sting wore.

Oh, and someone needs to buy MGM because I want my $10 back for Quantum of Solace. (I've long accepted I'm never getting those two hours back, so it's the least they can do).
